The Boy Next door

Epilogue!

I got out of the hospital a few months after that.. I remember it pretty clearly.. I had just got out and the florida air was humid and the sun was shinning high above the tall trees. I had gotten into a cab that I asked the nurse to call due to the fact that I have no car, or family to come pick me up, I got into the cab that took me back the place I never wanted to see again.. Not after everything that ive been through in this horrid house I never thought I would ever have to come back, but the truth is I never really left I was always there at the house, in the same washed up town with the same people that never will understand the beauty have having true friends and a boyfriend you adore to  no extend but at that moment when I was walking through the house I felt like I was being the biggest hyporcrite alive because everything was a dream.. I felt like nothing was real because at that time it wasnt. 

After making myself dinner every week that whole month since I got out of the hospital I decided to go out and eat, I took it as a treat for still holding up, I stopped at a food truck and headed towards the library. That was the best decision I had ever made. I showed up to the library and logged myself into a computer, I typed in '3201 labor street' which was the address in my dream I clicked on theCalifornia site and looked at the house.. it was the same in my dream Mikes house was the same too. After that I had spent month after months working diffrent shifts and trying to make as much money as possible to buy a plane ticket to go out and meet them to talk to them and maybe move over there. A year past and I was able to afford a house over there, nothing big or fancy just enough for me to be content in. Senior year was the best year of my life I had met Mike again.. and we started over we became bestfriends at first me him and Fernando then Taylor and Fernando fell in-love with him, Just like in my dream. After that me and Mike spent every moment we could with eachother we told each other our secrets and our feelings, he never knew about the dream, I didnt feel comfortable telling him that one thing. He asked me out and we started dating.. We all ended up going to the same college and we stated the best of friends, I was one of Taylors bridesmaids when  her and Fernando got married, Mike was Fernandos best man. It was the most happiest thing had seen, The glisten in her eyes when he was saying his vows on the beachs sand, and the adoration in his eyes as the waves crashed down gently.

After college me and Mike moved in together one night me Taylor and Fernando where hanging out in the living room when Mike came in with pizza and movies, We all got excited and me and Taylor won the fight over which move to watch, The "Vow" of course.. But before I knew it Mike stood me up got down on one knee and proposed. It was truly the happiest moment of my life, I knew then that what ever happened in the past was for a reason and that everything that I was put through was a blessing because they led me to where I am right now. It took a year of planning, until the wedding was planned, Nothing big just a few friends Taylor was my only brides maid and Fernando was Mikes best man and he had a few grooms man that were part of his family, The wedding was on the beach in Florida it was simple but beautiful.The dress was white of course it cascaded down my back gently brushing against the soft sand with every vow that followed. 

I remember it clearly. He looked straight in my eyes and said "Leana renee.. I love you with all my heart and soul Ive never met anyone whos eyes sparkle with such light when they talk about somthing they adore, or how your nose scrunches up and your eyes close when you laugh so hard, or how when you cook you have to have some type of music blasting through the house while your dancing and singing nearly burning the house down. But most of all I love how, no matter what we have been through you're words, you're mind, you're heart, you're point of view, eveything good and everything bad about you all your perfections and all your imperfections everything.. you never left and after we conqured what we were going through you would look up at with me with your bright eyes and I knew you were going to love me even more after that moment. To me you're the moon, the stars, the sun and everything in between. If I lost you it would be like losing a galaxy and im not prepared to see the stars fall out of our love. I never want to see that happened.."

I never met Victoria again, I heard she moved to africa to study more about Ebola and took her whole family with her. She was a big time doctor just like in my dreams but she only had chloe, James never existed that was the only thing that was diffrent about her family.

Two years since the wedding, Four years after the hospital was when we had our first child, July 15 was the date, He is an amazing child after fighting for nine months about his name we decided on Jontrey Xeric. When he was five we had our second child her name was Vanity Faith.

Its been awhile since ive thought about it though.. Im 45 now and my kids are teenagers we all live in seattle in a big pent house, with two dogs. I found the love of my life in a dream... I found happiness in my dream and I found myself in a dream...
